Ryu Hwayoung Lands Her First Leading Role

After being acknowledged for her acting in the recently concluded JTBC drama “Age of Youth,” actress Ryu Hwayoung has snagged her first leading role for KBS’s drama special “Disqualified Laughter” (tentative title).

“Disqualified Laughter,” which will air later this month, tells the story of a serious and careful meteorologist named Lee Ji Ro who struggles to win the love of weather forecaster Shin Na Ra, whose beautiful smile is only shown when the camera is rolling.
